Update to 'What price Romance?'
Topic: Misc.
I got a reply to my e-mail today. I should explain that my e-mail to her was more strongly worded than the last post may have made clear. I went as far as to say that most women are boring.

Hello DY

Thanks for your reply inside you provided me with a missing puzzle piece I hadn't thought of, so I am very grateful.

You are of course quite right about the politics, current affairs note. I do discuss things with my friends but they are always light hearted, being in a creative industry, it tends to be more about art, peoples perceptions, and of course relationships. I don't read magazines, and somewhat disillusioned with history repeating itself quite so often I no longer read the newspapers either. The media seem to be obsessed with whipping up the general public into a permanent state of frenzy, I'm still waiting for the killer bees of 2004 to attack!

I am trivial, I am flighty, I would rather talk about human nature and anomalies than discuss a good book (don't read those anymore either), and perhaps I am becoming a paler version of myself and have let a lacklustre attitude creep in. My conversations are very samey, the content has little that is new too myself in it, to bring to the table. I do however have a great sense of humour and the best friends in the world.

However you are right I do need to shape up or ship out! So thank you for highlighting that I shall endeavour to do better!

As to the money, in previous years I funded an ex-boyfriend for two years whilst he re-trained. Now years later I am a single and poor as a church mouse as my circumstances changed. This which means although I don't overtly want a mans money, I struggle to keep up financially and it is a cheek that I should look for a relationship at all when I can only buy one round a week if that!

What I meant was in the circles within which I move at present, social and business wise, I meet both young and old successful men who have found they enjoy their own company more often than not. Having a female around is ok for an afternoon, perhaps even a whole day, but that's enough! I do understand their
perspective. I just like those rare types like myself who enjoy company the majority of the time rather than minority.

I think it is a reflection of living in an affluent area, where if you get bored you just get on a jet and have an adventure, alone or with your mates.

So please don't take offence to what I have written. I probably don't deserve a relationship because I cannot fund one, but we all have dreams.
